Does it? I`d have expected something more like
image/webp WebP a66 .webp
where WebP in the middle is the RISC OS filetype name (as given in a ROOL
forum post). There`s no & on the numerical filetype in this file, as the
value is always given in hexadecimal.

It`s a document in the Docs folder of the Flash Player application,
documenting what you would add to your live MimeMap file if you wanted it to
recognise Flash files. Just because a file has the name MimeMap, doesn`t
mean that it is actually being used as by the MimeMap module -- or even that
it is a mappings file.
What matters is where the Inet$MimeMappings variable is pointing: that`s the
*only* file that MimeMap will be using. On the RO5 machine here, it`s set to
InetDBase:MimeMap; consequently, looking up InedDBase$Path tells me where
the file is located.
